A pogramm is a semi-organized act, or set of acts, of violence by one group directed at another group. For instance, this is the sort of thing that went on in the south-western Soviet satilites, directed at Jews, prior to WW2. "Christal Night" was a pogramm.
Windows 98 is one of the worst "operating systems" ever. Running it nativily is sure to get you beaten up by the/. Pogramm Action Committee. But emulating it is suddenly cool enough for a Slashdot headline?
Of course,/. also posts every time someone gets Linux to do anything remotly approaching almost sorta but not quite entirely unlike working on anything that has electricity pluged into it, so...
i think it also must have something to be relative to. For instance, when something is flying, I expect it to be "above" the ground. In an endless vacuum, with not bottom, nothing to be "above," I cannot support the term "flying." I equate "space ships" more with sea-going vessles, anyway. Perhaps they are "sailing" or "steaming" through space? Litterally, of course, that is not true. However, neither is "flying."
Why is it that we as a community tend to delight in the most absolutly innane things that one could possibly come up with?
Yes, I am probably refering to the community of humanity in general, once all the scores are tallied, i guess we arn't any more lame than people with cardboard cutouts of LoTR Characters in their ro.... oh...wait.
facist theocracies are great. I like Mussolini. I like Catholic control. I like uniform culture, morals, et cetera. That is what makes community, and that is what makes society.
some mates of mine fucked the shit up out of a parvy who was dealing in Tralee.
Michael Kissane was constantly affraid that I was going to have my own kneecaps blown off. It's that "classic" punishment. But like Hitler said, a lie told often enough and the people believe it. I've heard many stories from people inside and out about this sort of treatment for drug offenses as well as other crimes of "moral terpitude"
what puts Iraq into perspective is the 20,000 people who died on D Day. War is war. People die. 700 in a year is nothing compared to 20,000 in a few hours.
Yes, I have been to Ireland. And while I was there, some guys I knew caped a dealer. Drugs are not tollerated, at least not in the Republic. Maybe in the North things are different. I don't know a whole lot about the inner workings of the UDA or UVF. My involvement with the IRA is limited to perifery things. I know people, but I don't do shit. I'm never there at a long enough stretch to matter. I support the party, though. I am not even sure why. They are uber-liberal.
IRA is also known as ADA. In Munster (Kerry, Cork, et cetera), the Garda don't really enforce drug laws. If you deal, the IRA kills you. If you do it, they blow your knee caps out. I know what i am talking about (and I can still walk.)
INLA and the OIRA are very hard core anti-drug. The Provos used to do whatever it takes. they have abandoned the true principles behind republicanism for the "whatever it takes to get the english out." Of course, that's all they are after. The Officials are no longer reall much of anything, but groups such as RIRA (Omagh bombing) have taken their place and their possitions.
Also, the 1993 bombing in London was what brought the British to the peace table. That is what eventually lead to the GFA accord (got the fuckers talking).
Of course, as an Irish-American, with Sinn Féin tattooed below a harp on my arm, who served w/ a Kerry group for a while, and who doesn't even talk to protestants around here, let alone in Ireland, my possition is rather biased. But I am sure you all knew that already.
was designed to apply to political speach. You have the right to speak out against the government. You do not have the "right" to public obsentity, profanity, any of the myriad of things "artists" claime are "speach." Using a cellphone is not "speach," although it's "speaking." Where the hell do you have the right to a telephone, anyway? Maybe the 9th amendment. But that's a stretch. Cell phones piss me off. seriously. Personally, I think they should be so prohibitly expensive that only doctors and drug dealers can afford them. The drug dealers could easily be culled out. Then only people who actually have emergencies would be able to interupt the public serenity.
and just to cover godwin's law and make sure no one replies:Nazi Himler Hitler SS Bush Cheney Eva Bruan is hot.
You're a devout Muslim. I am a devout Roman(Irish) Catholic. We both think we are right. We must both think the other is wrong. Either one of us is right (and I think I am) or neither of us is right(a good possibility). Personally, I doubt St. Michael or whichever "angel" it was would be hanging around in a cave talking to arabs, when allegedly God loves the Jews, and Arabs hate the Jews. I put angel in quotes because I also doubt that in addition to talking to a bastard son of Abraham, even if the Jews reject Christ thereby sealing their fate to witness the never-ending disfavour of God and the wickedness in the hearts of men, that this "angel" would be of God when the arabs, prior to this, were all about the necronomicon and dijins and other such dark and evil spirits. This is the basis for my ascertion that Islam is a cover for satanism. The fact that it has been traditionally antagonistic at best with the the western world constatntly drawing us into conflict, is a good indicator that if the protestant ascertion that Revelations is/yet/ to happen (Catholic doctrine is that, like Genesis which is but a poem on creation, Revelations is a poem on events in the Empire at the time), an "armegeddon" is going to be fought probably against Islam and not "demon" armies. I am sorry, but studying your holy book would do me little good unless you expect it to brainwash me into accepting your religion as truth. It has no cultural influence on me, being not a muslim, not knowing any muslims, et cetera, and therefor I cannot study it with an "independent" mind as I could the hebrew bible. I know some jews. Plus, Judiasm bled into Christianity (Celtic Paganism bled into it culturally for me, too, being Irish). I am not "racist." Muslim isn't a race. I went to my high school prom with an Arab Christian. Her mother was born in Jordan. This is essentially a theological debate, only there are those on both sides who "know damned well" that they are correct, and those still that are willing to kill over it. I am willing to kill in defense of my self, family, friends, property, and way of life. Bin Laden &co are willing to kill to destroy it all. Would I be willing to preemptivly kill? If the Pope granted another Crusade, I guess I would have to. However, I am not joining the army to go and take care of a theological issue without the blessing of the head of the church. As to your other points:
I was born in New York, on Long Island, to a fairly aristocratic family there of Anglo-Irish origin. Pierce was the name. You may have heard of the President in our closet. My mother was senior management in a Japanese brokerage firm until she married me dad (an airline captain), got pregant with me, and quit. She went to Princeton, as did her father, his father having gone to Harvard. My father's father was born here, his father having been a major in the cavalry, fought in the indian wars, and been comondant of the citidel durring ww1. I live near williamsburg, yorktown, and jamestown, just accross the river from york town, and a stone's throw from them all. This is often concidered the birthplace of the nation. Frankly, I couldn't care less what the rest of the country thinks of Virginia, any more than I care what people in the Chezk Republic think of America as a whole. I've been to college. I took a term out. I am going back for studying Political Science and Classics. I am dedicated to the Republican principles of Rome. I want a seat in the state legislature, and to be a prosecutor. I would like some day to be attorney general of the commonwealth of virginia. I believe in rule of law, equality of protection afforded to defendents, et cetera. I also believe in victims rights, firm and even justice, et cetera. I would never prosecute a "possesion" type firearms charge because the law being broken would in and of itself be illegal due to the 2nd amendment, plus the state constitution. I believe in the 10th, 2nd, 9th, and 1st amendments in that order. The rest are superfelous because the federal government shouldn't have enough laws to ever prosecute someone.
then i guess you don't know better. Besides, I love the Commonwealth of Virginia too much to leave it for any extended period of time for any other place but Ireland, my 2nd home.

i know it very well... i am certain islam will kill us all, and willing to entertain the possibility of merit in the claims of some sort of international jewish banking/media conspiricy. to do what, i havn't a clue, as most international organizations, such as the un, are pretty anti-semetic. therefor, world govt. via the un is right out as a possibility. i dislike hip-hop and fake words like "fo shizle." however, i am otherwise as inclusive as Rome and really don't "hate" anyone but the muslims, and that is out of survivle instincts. they can do whatever the hell they want to as long as it is far away from me and out of range of an AK-47.
